+.Sh NAME
+.Nm kbd
+.Nd Sun workstation keyboard
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "pseudo-device kbd"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides an interface to the workstation console keyboard.
+.Qq type 2 ,
+.Qq type 3 ,
+.Qq type 4 ,
+and
+.Qq type 5
+keyboards are supported.
+The
+.Qq type 5
+keyboard is treated as if it were a
+.Qq type 4 .
+All types generate keycodes encoding the
+key identity and motion (up or down) as the keys are pressed and released.
+The
+.Nm
+driver either passes the keycodes to an application as they come in, or
+translates them into
+.Tn ASCII
+characters first according to a set of built-in tables.
+.Pp
+If the keyboard is configured as the device
+to be used for system console input
+.Pq see Xr eeprom 8 ,
+it will be internally connected to the
+.Pa /dev/console
+device special file, which can be used as a
+.Xr tty 4
+device.
+.Pp
+The device special file
+.Pa /dev/kbd
+is used to get direct access to the keyboard input stream.
+The following
+ioctl's are supported (mostly just enough to keep the
+.Ic X
+server going):
+.Bl -tag -width KIOCSDIRECT
+.It KIOCTRANS
+Set translation mode.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" ,
+the only value supported is
+.Dv TR_UNTRANS_EVENT .
+.It KIOCGTRANS
+Get translation mode.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" .
+.Dv TR_UNTRANS_EVENT
+is always returned.
+.It KIOCGETKEY
+Fill in old-style key station translation.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "struct okiockey *" .
+.It KIOCCMD
+Send a command to the keyboard.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" ,
+and can have one of the following values:
+.Bl -tag -width KBD_CMD_NOCLICK
+.It KBD_CMD_BELL
+Start the keyboard beeper.
+.It KBD_CMD_NOBELL
+Stop the keyboard beeper.
+.It KBD_CMD_CLICK
+Instruct the keyboard to make extra noise when touching keys.
+.It KBD_CMD_NOCLICK
+Instruct the keyboard to stop making extra noise when touching keys.
+.El
+.It KIOCTYPE
+Get keyboard type.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" ,
+in which one of the values
+.Dv KB_SUN2 ,
+.Dv KB_SUN3
+or
+.Dv KB_SUN4
+will be returned.
+.It KIOCSDIRECT
+Route the keyboard input stream through the
+.Tn SunOS
+compatible event module.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" ,
+a non-zero value will put the driver into
+.Dq event
+mode, while a value of zero will make it return to
+.Dq ASCII translation
+mode.
+.It KIOCSKEY
+Set key station translation.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "struct kiockey *"
+.Pq see Pa /usr/include/machine/kbio.h No for more details .
+.It KIOCGKEY
+Get key station translation.
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "struct kiockey *" .
+.It KIOCLAYOUT
+Get keyboard layout
+.Pq Do type 4 Dc only .
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "int *" ,
+in which the uninterpreted result of the
+.Dv KBD_CMD_GLAYOUT
+keyboard command is returned
+.Po on Dv KBDUN4
+type keyboards this will be the setting of a DIP switch bank
+.Pc .
+.It KIOCSLED
+Set LED state
+.Pq Do type 4 Dc only .
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "char *" ,
+and is the inclusive OR of the following flags:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width LED_SCROLL_LOCK -compact
+.It LED_NUM_LOCK
+.It LED_COMPOSE
+.It LED_SCROLL_LOCK
+.It LED_CAPS_LOCK
+.El
+.Pp
+Each of these flags turn on the LED in the obvious key.
+.It KIOCGLED
+Get LED state
+.Pq Do type 4 Dc only .
+The argument is of type
+.Fa "char *" ,
+in which the current LED state is returned.
